Lok lak

Lok lak is a Cambodian beef stir-fry served with rice, lettuce and a separate dip. The ASEAN-Korea Centre’s recipe marinates beef with soy, oyster and tomato sauces, garlic, sugar, salt and pepper.[1]

Onion is fried before the meat is added; chilli sauce may follow. The dip combines lime juice, pepper, salt, sugar and garlic. Lettuce can wrap the beef before dipping.[1]
